BRRLIN, June lit is expected that the
session Of the Reichstag will close on June
%. The government aims to secure, during
the present session, the passage of the spirit
monopoly and the sugar bills, measures for
the protection for women and children and
a law regulating the administration of AL
SAGE Lorraine. The committees have been
working so slowly, however over the spirit
monopoly and sugar bills that it is doubted
whether they will be completed, unless the
session is prolonged. The Alsace- Lor-
raine measure will be carried
to its second reading without
amendment. The debate on the bill on its
first reading had the effect of evoking from
the Alsatian members much better speeches
than usual. They declared that the measure
was intended to enable the government TO
appoint q dictator in every commune in AL
kamer, Minister of the. Interior, appealed
to the House to assist the government
to contend against the French agitation
which, he said, was largely formented
through the Reichstag, by the present Bur-
gomasters and other municipal officers
This concluding declaration that the gov
eminent could not be responsible for the
administration of affairs in the Reichsland
unless it was allowed to deal in its own way
with the anti German officials caused the
House to decide to reject Windthorst's pro-
posal and to refer the bill to a
committee. Herr Wind Thorst made long
speech criticising the bill, but he was heard
in unsympathetic silence by his usual sup
porters. All the parties in the Reichstag e,
except the Professors, concur in aclxnowledg-
ing the necessity of granting the Govern
ment extended powers of administration in
the Reichstand, besides the Jaw reorganiz-
ing the municipal departments. The
BundeSrdth comedies with the
project, authorizing the Emperor by q
simple decree, to enforce in the Reichsland
the laws which comply TO all Germany.
Other Ger7nanizing measures are contem-
plated by the government, including a new
arrangement of the communal districts, SC
as to enable the government to exercise a
better supervision and extension of the
German teaching, and exclusive employ
ment OF German professors in the schools.
NO FRENCH IDEAS WANTED
The thoroughness in extirpating the
French element is more than ever the order
of the day. Prince Won Hohenhoe speak
ing at reunion of the Forest Guards, held
at Kayserberg, referred to them as the
special representatives of the German idea
in Alsace Lorraine, and said they merited
special protection because they were isolated
in the midst of population which was lit
tie in sympathy with them. They propa-
gated the German idea and maintained the
German honor.
THE EMPERoR's ILLNESS.
The Emperors illness is having an adverse
effect on the Bourse. At the opening to-day
there was marked weakness but the mar
ket partially recovered on a report that the
Emperor's health had improved. Still the
market closed at decline of 1-2 per cent
